Last Friday, June 6 2025, Judge Claudia Wilken gave the green-light to the House v. NCAA $2.7 billion settlement, ushering in the most sweeping NIL rule-change since the Supreme Court’s Alston decision cracked the door in 2021. Now the door is off the hinges—and MOGL is handing you the user-manual.

There’s a new way to take your NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) game to the next level—right from the palm of your hand. We’re excited to announce the launch of MOGL iOS App Version 2.0, featuring our brand new NIL Feed. If you’re ready to boost your earning power, get inspired by fellow athletes, and make NIL deals even easier, this is the update you’ve been waiting for.

A decade ago, influencer marketing was a game dominated by celebrities and mega-influencers. Fast-forward to today, and the landscape has shifted dramatically. The most effective voices in the game aren’t always the ones with millions of followers—they’re the micro and nano-influencers who are redefining engagement, authenticity, and return on investment (ROI) for brands.

The influencer marketing landscape is evolving at lightning speed, and artificial intelligence (AI) is at the heart of this transformation. From finding the right influencers to automating campaign execution and measuring impact with precision, AI is making influencer marketing more efficient, data-driven, and scalable than ever before.

For years, influencer marketing was seen as a top-of-funnel play—great for brand awareness but not much else. Fast forward to today, and the game has changed completely. Influencers are now driving impact across the entire customer journey, from discovery and consideration to purchase and long-term loyalty.

Influencer marketing just got a major upgrade. For years, brands have been stuck in a cycle of slow, manual, and frustrating influencer discovery. Sifting through profiles, vetting influencers, and managing outreach could take three weeks (or more!) before a campaign even launched. But now? With MOGL AI, those three weeks shrink to just minutes.

We’ve all heard it: influencer marketing is going to change everything. And in a way, it already has. It’s now easier than ever to pair your brand with a face and personality that your audience trusts. Yet the perennial challenge has always been the same: how do we measure the impact of influencer campaigns—how do we prove ROI?

In today’s saturated digital landscape, brands are in a constant battle for consumer attention. Traditional advertising channels are no longer sufficient to make a significant impact. To truly stand out, savvy marketers are blending the authenticity of influencer marketing with the expansive reach of paid media. This potent combination is realized through strategies like paid boosting and influencer whitelisting—a game-changer for brands aiming to elevate their presence and engagement.

In the dynamic world of influencer marketing, understanding an influencer's engagement rate is crucial for brands aiming to craft a successful influencer marketing campaign. Engagement rate isn't just a vanity metric; it's a key indicator of how well an influencer's content resonates with their audience, directly impacting the success of your influencer marketing strategies. So, how do you accurately analyze this vital metric to enhance your influencer outreach and maximize your influencer marketing spending?

The landscape of college athletics is on the brink of a seismic shift. The recent House vs. NCAA settlement isn’t just another legal footnote—it’s a game changer that redefines how student-athletes are compensated and how they can leverage their Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) for third-party deals. This monumental agreement ushers in a new era of revenue sharing and opens up a world of opportunities for athletes both on and off the field.

In the ever-evolving world of influencer marketing, data is your compass. For Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) brands, understanding which metrics matter can be the difference between a campaign that soars and one that falls flat. So, what should you really be paying attention to when diving into the analytics of your influencer partnerships? Let’s break down the essential metrics that will help you optimize your campaigns and maximize your ROI.

In the fast-paced world of D2C marketing, data isn’t just numbers on a spreadsheet—it’s the key to unlocking your brand’s potential. But let’s be real: data can be overwhelming. So, how do you turn all those metrics into actionable strategies, especially when it comes to influencer marketing and paid media? Let’s break it down.

In the ever-evolving digital landscape, Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) brands are constantly seeking innovative strategies to maximize their Return on Investment (ROI). One powerful approach gaining traction is the fusion of influencer marketing with paid media. By combining the authenticity and engagement of influencer content with the precision and scalability of paid advertising, brands can significantly amplify their reach and impact.

In today’s digital landscape, Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) brands are always looking for the perfect blend of strategies to boost their visibility, engagement, and—most importantly—conversions. Learn how to optimize this.

In the rapidly evolving world of digital marketing, one strategy stands out for its unmatched effectiveness with Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) brands targeting Gen-Z: influencer marketing.

In the ever-evolving world of digital marketing, influencer marketing has emerged as a powerful strategy, driving brand awareness and engaging consumers in a way that traditional advertising often can't. But is it right for your business?

March Madness is not only the pinnacle of the college basketball season but also a dynamic showcase of the true benefit of athletes being able to monetize their Name, Image, and Likeness (“NIL”).NIL deals have transformed the ways that brands can capitalize on athletes’ influence both during the tournament and throughout the calendar year, offering them new avenues for engagement, promotion, and reach.

In the influencer marketing landscape, product gifting is a strategic approach that significantly amplifies brand visibility and trust. This tactic is particularly impactful with nano and micro influencers, who engage deeply with their audience, fostering a sense of authenticity and trust. MOGL's job-based methodology refines this strategy, enhancing precision and effectiveness in influencer partnerships.

At its forefront, NIL offers athletes the exciting opportunity to engage in marketing sponsorships and earn income, benefitting both themselves and their families. However, beneath the surface lies a profound potential for athletes to cultivate a unique set of skills that were often overshadowed by their sporting prowess. These skills encompass professional communication, time management, entrepreneurial aptitude, creativity, and more – attributes that are essential for future success beyond the field.

In the first two years of NIL, over 200 collectives have emerged, and more than 80 of these collectives were formed as non-profits, or 501(c)(3) organizations - an Internal Revenue Service designation that allows for businesses to be exempt from taxes so long as they are primarily focused on making advancement and improvement for the public good.

Every year, collegiate representatives from athletic departments across the country gather at the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics’ (NACDA) convention. This is an opportunity to watch dozens of experts speak on all aspects of collegiate athletics and current issues. Naturally, Name, Image, and Likeness took center stage amongst the issues discussed. ‍MOGL is proud to have sponsored the NIL Education Seminar curated to help administrators, vendors, and others navigate this new landscape and learn how best to prosper amidst a flexible regulatory environment. ‍Here are our key takeaways from NACDA 2023.

Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) has opened up the doors for college athletes to earn money from their brand, bringing with it both expected and unexpected challenges and complications.

Here's some steps to get started on how to implement a successful NIL program.

I wanted to reference this speech by Theodore Roosevelt in admiration of all of the athletes who attended year 2 of the NIL Summit.

This is a tremendous honor that they should all be very proud of.

While significant progress has been made, there is still much work to be done to fully eradicate the negative mental health stigma that continues to afflict college and professional athletes.

The partnership between MOGL and Alkeme Health is a significant step towards addressing the critical issue of mental health in college sports. The Alkeme Athlete Coalition will provide student-athletes with the necessary tools and resources to support their mental well-being, making a positive difference in their lives.

Sports figures have long been trusted brand ambassadors and highly sought by marketers. With the rise of social media, the opportunity for athletes to endorse products, directly or indirectly, is tremendous; but when it comes to collegiate sports, these athletes were prohibited from the marketing game until the introduction of NIL in 2021. NIL - name, image, and likeness - now allows amateur athletes to receive compensation and profit off of their popularity and often their already-sizable following on social media.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month. For decades, despite tremendous advancements in medicine around the globe and a growing commitment to wellness, mental health has long been considered a ‘taboo’ topic in athletics that has lingered far too long in the dark. Unlike physical disease and health challenges which are approached as problems to be resolved, there has been a stigma around mental health issues that brings with it undue shame for people who suffer with mental illness and even for their families.

How to market your brand to a Gen Z audience using college athlete influencers.

The NIL landscape is continuously being referred to as the “Wild West,” where everything goes due to the absence of any uniform rules or laws governing collegiate sports. Over the past few months, we have seen many activities that stretch the boundaries of what is permissible and above-board– in the same way that Jesse James and Billy the Kid stretched the limits to reap the benefits of an unregulated and dangerous 19th-century American West.
